A big discussion was created by the intro
duction of the following by Attorney Wag-
ner:
Resolved, That in an appropriation for the
erection of q new almshouSe is made, that the Sc
lectmen and citizens committee which will have
the awarding of the contracts for the same be ana
hereby are instructed to give the same to New Ha-
bidders.
Attorney Henry White raised a point of
order that inasmuch as there was no notice
in the special call of the intention to give
the contracts to New Haven bidders only,
the resolution was not entitled to considera-
ton.
Attorney John w. Alling in vigorous
speech defended the right of the lowest bid
der. It was breaking faith with the con-
tractors to pass such a resolution. Ex-Coun-
Gilman Chillingworth opposed the resolution
also. Attorney Wagner in a bright speech
favored it.
Attorney Webb sided with Mr.. Alling.
The chairman refused to entertain the reso-
luton as the matter was not contained in the
call for the meeting. 1t was then voted that
$100, 000, the necessary sum, be appropri-
ated.

The growth of the Moxie Nerve Food bust
ness is something prodigious. 1t is predicted
by eminent physicians that as it fills place
medicine cannot reach, it will be the largest
business in the country. In Milwaukee they
gave the Food to Mrs. Mary E. Cook, iv-
ing at 378 Van Buren, street, who had been
nearly helpless for years, from being over
tasked with work. Her weight went from
115 lbs. to 1875 lbs. in few weeks, and she
fully recovered. 1t created so much interest
the medical men hardly knew what to think
of it, as all that system could do had been
tried. IF the company would only reduce
the price to 80 cents a bottle every Ba1K
could use it, 1t really gives great powers Of
endurance.

reputation for veracity was bad, but this tes-
timony was weakened by testimony intro
duced as to her good character. Attorney
Hamilton for the plaintiff arose at quarter
past four and made the opening argument,
closing at 5 o'clock. Mr.. Hamilton in clos
ing laid great stress on the point that if the
verdict was for the plaintiff it should be for
81 1882, the price of the bond, $3.50 the value
of the July coupon, and interest on the lat
ter at per cent. from July until the date
of the verdict. Court then adjourned until

Ben Hardin, the Kentucky lawyer,
was all orator possessed Of such skill
in moving the hearts of mon that very
lew who heard the beginning of Que of
his speeches had inclination or ability
to leave before its conclusion.
He once hit upon the ingenious
describing the conversations which
had taken place among the dogs Of the
town about his clients adversary and
the opposing witnesses. The speech
occupied the greater part Of the day.
A farmers wife, living in the coun-
try, had sent her negro boy TO town
OH an errand, with orders TO return
40 it was completed. The boy, how
ever, did not appear until nightfall,
and his mistress, out of all patience,
asked her husband to take him out for
a whipping.
The master, intending to comply,
thought he would, nevertheless, hear
what the negro had to say in self
defense.
"I'll tell you how it was mass,''
said the boy. 81 went to town, and
was starting home, and I heard Mr..
Harden speaking. Iput my head into
the courthouse door, just to hear
what he was talking about. Ho was
telling what some dogs had said, and
I got to listening, and the first thing /
know it was night"

that was what kept you, shall have
to let you off this time. was caught
